# Upmend vs HomeQueue

The clearest difference is ads: Upmend at none against HomeQueue's shown. HomeQueue's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 6 months) and iOS requirement (17.0 vs 27.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Upmend sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per year and HomeQueue sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
